  1. Peter Navarro is not a serious person. The other two it remains to be seen.
  2. https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/local/dallas-county/dallas-ballot-propositions-voters-18-charter-amendment-proposals/287-e750e702-2461-40ee-a897-94fa9f771acb a/k/a "HERO amendments."
  3. He's also one of the cunts behind Dallas' recent inadvisable voter initiatives, RSTU.
  4. Not to mention all the cockgobbling the GOP has done that got us here. Invertbrates. Fucking paramecia.
  5. Fucking disgusting. Corporatism is out of control and is our number-one problem as a nation. It also happens to be a big sign of a fascist government. It's going to be hard to put that genie back in the bottle.
  6. Well, you do in discussions of pharma practices. But on this foreign policy stuff, I've never seen you do it. Best I have seen is allusions to prior posts. By osmosis, I can tell that you're opposed to military adventurism fueled at least partially by intelligence failures or manipulation, the civilian casualties they entail, and violations of civil rights by the intelligence-gathering apparatus. I'll give Gabbard some small credit for opposing those violations, but I don't think when push comes to shove in this office she'll be the guardian of civil and human rights that you seem to think she will be.
  7. Dick is way too big. Should be pinched between his tiny index finger and thumb.
  8. Ackshually, he strenuously avoids committing to any position on anything.
  9. By that standard, Mike Flynn deserves to be president. National Guard service and a political career don't immunize a person from criticism, nor does it establish competence. She claims to be a reformer. Any of the current "reform" reassuring you that any of her reforms will be measured or actually improve anything?
  10. At some point, you'll learn to stop being credulous on the internet. https://6abc.com/post/black-box-found-medical-jet-crashed-northeast-philadelphia-sources/15858101/
  11. The point is not whether anyone agrees with the talking points she spewed in her confirmation hearing. The point is that she is feckless, inexperienced, unqualified, and invertebrate. And she's appointed to be a stooge. The theater of a confirmation hearing doesn't change any of that.
  12. Now I know that you and @dcbc are around my age yet have fathers old enough to have served in WWII.
  13. Very glad he recovered and you could rekindle your relationship on a positive basis. A whole lot of drunks and addicts are at their core great people if recovery can just unleash them.
  14. Yeah, and I guess clearcutting has its place in forest management as well. But I would expect the Trump administration to do it for profit and without regard to good forestry practices. Sadly, part of the South's ascendance in timber production is abuse of rural and rural minority families to take their timberland and put it in production when they hadn't properly descended their lands.
  15. Trump thinks they should just die. https://time.com/7002003/donald-trump-disabled-americans-all-in-the-family/
  16. Notice I said "clearcutting." I would expect that we log federal land, because unlike sweeping forest floors, it's how you keep forests healthy from disease and fire.
  17. I was a timber manager/owner for 20 years and my parents 40 years before that. Timber prices mainly varied with the amount of importation/supply from Canada. Of course, what was good for me as a timber owner was bad for the construction industry and homebuyers. Note that as of that article, the tariff rate was 14.5 percent, having been raised from about 2-3%.
  18. And disappear to avoid engaging on their "dissenting opinions." And later whinge in Daily Texan or elsewhere about the "librul cabal."
  19. I think she stated a lot of intentions that are at odds with her history. So can't be proven as lies. In other words, her testimony was tailored to win confirmation. Which, of course, all such testimony is, but like most things Trump-related, turned to 11.
  20. Also the more lumber than we can use is a flat lie. Well, maybe not if we start clearcutting national forests.
  21. Yeah, he cares very much what certain people think of him. That includes those as wealthy or wealthier than him and those that run bigger businesses than him. He has to vilify those that don't adore him. And he has to do that because the adoration is what it's all about. Adoration is intrinsic to him.
  22. and the adults are back in charge. @realgreggym fucking cunt.
  23. Also, I guess the corollary or flip side to the utopian world and what happened here is we offshored excessively because cheap rates means more profits and corporations don't give a flying fuck about anything else. And maybe a side dish of lower consumer prices for commodity-type goods and a number of value-added. And hardly anyone else could get unassed to see the big picture, including government, unions and just about everyone else. That was a galactic failure on our part.
  24. And, at this point, I'm not sure even zero sales could hurt TSLA. As posted elsewhere, it's a complete meme stock now.
